I made a home dashboard (that I access on my iPad) that talks to my Philips Hue bridge for controlling my house's lights, and also shows train arrival times + what my dog should be clothed in (if at all) for her walks (there was a smallish period of time here in nyc where one day you'd have to wear a jacket and the next day you'd be sweating even in shorts). It also shows our family calendar (wife + self) - all family birthdays in the next 4 days, any events, etc
